The voltage selector switch should be preset for your area; however, contact your
local power company if you are uncertain of the voltage for your area.

• If the voltage supply range in your area is 100-127V, set the voltage selector switch

so you can see 115V or 115.

• If the voltage supply range in your area is 200-240V, set the voltage selector switch

so you can see 230V or 230.

Connect the power cords to the computer and monitor first, and then connect the
power cords to the electrical outlets.  For clarity, only the power cords are shown in
this picture.
